Autograph in the classroom - algebra & calculus

What is the source?


Course delivered by Alan Catley.

What's the big idea?


A session focussing on using Autograph to enhance the teaching and learning of algebra, graphing and calculus.

What are they saying?


Resources were introduced from the Kangaroo Maths website - Bring on the Maths

Autograph 3.3 can be used to graph functions. By using a constant controller & the "slow plot" function, rich discussion can take place about the possible solutions to simultaneous equations involving quadratic functions.



Where can I learn more?


Autograph

The embedded autograph activity was created using the "Export to Web Page" Funtion in Autograph 3.3
The source code needs to amended slightly for it to work effectively: Video demonstrating how to embed autograph activities
Also you may need the correct version of Autograph Player

What next?


Explain what relevance this has to us:
  • How will this change your practice?
  • What do you or we need to do differently to make use of this idea?
  • How will it improve learning?

Pay particular attention to the last question: if you can't see how it improves learning, say so.
